First $99 HD Radio announced

HD Radio Tuner

Despite Ibiquity choosing to name next generation terrestrial radio after the ever so popular HDTV, it hasn't been widely accepted yet. The initial cost of HD radio tuners has been a big reason and Radiosophy is hoping to change that at NAB, by introducing the first $99 HD Radio, which makes it half as much as the next cheapest model. Like most radios today, it has a few more tricks: it's an alarm clock, has an external antenna connection, as well as the latest must have for any device with speakers, a line input for your MP3 player. According to the release you have to act now to get the $99 price, as those who wait until after July 30th will have to pay $119.99.
